Pop & Drop
Following are the day’s biggest winners and losers. Find out why shares of Wal-Mart and Celgene popped while U.S. Steel and Comcast dropped.

POPS (stocks that jumped higher)

Wal-Mart (WMT) popped 4%. The world's largest retailer beat on earnings and said earnings will be strong through the year. - It has a perfect "W" bottom, says Joe Terranova, $46.80 is the stop.

MBIA (MBI) popped 30%. The largest bond insurer announced it will split off its municipal bond insurance business from its mortgage-related business. - I think they will need more TARP money, speculates Joe Terranova.

Celgene (CELG) popped 2%. Oppenheimer initiated coverage of the stock with an ‘outperform’ rating and $73 price target.

Volcano Corp (VOLC) popped 12%. The maker of devices to diagnose and treat heart disease provided a 2009 earnings outlook that beat expectations.

Nalco (NLC) popped 5%. Warren Buffett added this name to his portfolio; also the company plans to expand its water treatment business globally.

DROPS (stocks that slid lower)

U.S. Steel (X) dropped 7%. UBS cut its 2009 earnings estimates to a loss of 55 cents a share, down from break even. - I'd be cautious, counsels Tim Seymour.

Comcast (CMCSA) dropped 4%. Fourth quarter earnings fell 32% from last year, as subscriber growth slowed. - I think it goes lower from here, speculates Guy Adami.

Jack In The Box (JACK) dropped 9%. Earnings for the first quarter dropped over 20% due to higher costs. - Not so good, muses Pete Najarian.

Constellation Energy (CEG) dropped 8%. Fourth-quarter earnings were worse than expected, due to its failed sale of MidAmerican Energy. - Terrible, says Tim Seymour.

Airlines (XAL) dropped 6%. A new report showed that travel is rapidly declining for both leisure and business.

Chesapeake Energy (CHK) dropped 4%. Fourth quarter earnings were below analysts' estimates.

Geron Corp (GERN) dropped 11%. Investors cashed out after the company announced it was selling over 7 million new shares.
